50031 Hood rounds the curve between Loch Eilt and Glenfinnan with the Pathfinder Tours 1Z23 'Monarch of the Glen' railtour on 5 March 2005, with 50049 Defiance on the rear. Luckily the road closely follows the line here, and various excellent vantage points can be had with only a short walk from the car, which is ideal when chasing a railtour! This spot is particularly good, as the sharp curve means the rear loco can clearly be seen. |
